Thanksgiving 2003

Our first Thanksgiving officially as family. With Grandma and Grandpa (Dad's folks) off in Russia, it was fairly easy choosing to spend the holiday with Mom's family (Grandmother & Grandfather). We stayed at their home for a few days and in that time enjoyed Thanksgiving, celebrated Dad's birthday (his second one with Mom's family), and even visited Grandfather's school class (once upon a time he was a school teacher for 30+ years, for all those out there who know him in his new career).
